The Hidden Light  (English, Paperback, Moorcroft Jennifer)

Saint Dominic has been described by one of his biographers, Guy Bedouelle OP, as ' hidden in the light'. Unlike most other founders of religious orders, he says, we have only three brief letters and almost none of his words preserved.; 'we know nothing of Dominic's life except what we can see through the eyes of his followers or his friends...The fact that our access to St. Dominic is so indirect reveals his discretion and, in a sense, his detachment from himself. This detachment in turn is an eloquent statement of the place he wished to hold within the Church.'
